1st Workshop on Robot Meets GNSS

Exploring Synergies and Challenges of Global Navigation Satellite Systems in Robotics

News

March 11, 2025, Invited talks of Dr. Tim Pfeifer, Dr. Shaojun Feng confirmed.

March 10, 2025, Invited talks of Prof. Mingquan Lu and Prof. Ling Pei confirmed.

March 9, 2025: Workshop website hosted.

March 8, 2025: Invited talks of Dr. Jialong Lin, Prof. Xingxing Li, Dr Taro Suzuki, and Prof. Weisong Wen confirmed.

Scope

This workshop aims to unite the GNSS and robotics communities to enhance state estimation for outdoor robot navigation. While GNSS offers a low-cost complement to traditional SLAM, its performance degrades in challenging environments. Recent GNSS advancements share common ground with robotics challenges like SLAM, presenting opportunities for cross-disciplinary innovation. By bringing together experts, industry leaders, and young researchers, this workshop will foster collaboration on shared issues such as error modeling and solver optimization, accelerating progress in both fields.
